The 2026–27 CET Cell brochure states that the practical and theory syllabi remain the same as the previous year; it does not reproduce a detailed chapter-by-chapter syllabus. The 2027–28 syllabus has not been published. Use the next official brochure and any syllabus notice as the authoritative source.

Preparation context from legacy syllabus material

Older IndCareer material discusses observation and visual perception, colour theory, design elements, composition, drawing and sketching. Treat these as broad practice areas only, not as an official exhaustive syllabus for 2027–28. The legacy /en/mah-aac-cet-syllabus route redirects here.
